Right to information activist Arvind Kejriwal has described as wrong Congress leader Digvijay Singh's claim that Rs.50 lakh was spent on the social activist Anna Hazare's four-day fast here to demand a Lokpal Bill and has maintained that only Rs.32 lakh was spent on the campaign spread over the past four months.
“He [Mr. Digvijay Singh] is wrong actually. You can see the figures. We have put them in the public domain. You will see a figure total of Rs.82 lakh, and a total of …Rs. 32 lakh has been spent in the past four months. It is not just at the Jantar Mantar [where Mr. Hazare staged the agitation],” he said on Sunday.
“There was this Ramlila Ground thing also. It has been spent on a couple of places. It includes Rs.6 lakh-Rs.7 lakh spent in Mumbai. Mumbai accounts were also included in this. It includes not just Jantar Mantar but also the preparations in between,” he said.
